Time 32m

Yield makes 10

120g butter , softened
75g light brown soft sugar
75g golden caster sugar

Once combined, stir in the flour, bicarb, white chocolate, mini pretzels and ¼ tsp salt. Break some of the pretzels up a little, but keep others whole to decorate the tops of the cookies.
  • Scoop 10 large tbsps of the mixture onto the trays, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading. Bake for 10-12 mins or until firm at the edges but still soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few mins before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.

White Chocolate Skillet Cookie with Bananas and Pretzels image

Provided by Eric Greenspan

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup (5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for greasing
Nonstick vegetable oil spray, optional
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 banana, sliced thin
1 cup chopped white chocolate
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup crushed pretzels
1/2 cup cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Steps:

  • For the cookie: Position an oven rack in the lowest position in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Thoroughly grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with butter (or use a stainless-steel skillet coated with nonstick vegetable oil spray).
  • Mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until no large lumps remain, about 1 minute.
  • Stir together the egg and vanilla in a large bowl. Fold in the banana and white chocolate. Combine the flour and baking soda in a separate large bowl until thoroughly combined. Add the egg mixture and butter mixture to the flour mixture and thoroughly combine. Fold in the pretzels until evenly distributed.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared skillet and pat into an even layer with damp hands so the batter extends to the edges of the skillet.
  • Bake until the outer edges are browned and slightly puffed, 20 to 25 minutes (15 to 18 minutes for stainless steel). Let cool.
  • For the whipped cream: Beat the heavy cream and peanut butter in a large cold mixing bowl with an electric mixer until it starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar, then continue beating until stiff peaks form (when you pull the beater up, peaks will form and not fall over), 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Slice and serve the cookie with the whipped cream.
